BaysiDe play therapy

Play is a child’s natural medium for self-expression - so let’s play it out.

At Bayside Play Therapy, we use toys as vocabulary to act as a child’s voice and work through their emotions. My goal is to help children and families learn to express their emotions, so they can be heard. Whether difficulties stem from trauma, learning, or behavioural difficulties, I help rebuild self-esteem and emotional growth. 

Who We Help

Children Aged 3 to 12 Years old

Families 

Trauma, Learning & Behaviour Difficulties

‘Every child should have a safe place in their life.’ - Joe Manchin

Play Therapy

Humanistic Therapy

Humanistic therapy is a non directive approach in which the child leads the session having control over the toys and materials they wish to use.

Filial Therapy

I work with families to help address issues and behaviours at home. Together, we discuss the environment and responses and work through conflict resolution.

Learn to Play Therapy

Many children simply don’t know how to play. This therapy helps spark the spontaneity of pretend play, to develop emotions and problem-solving.

Testimonials

John Doe's Image
Carole had an immediate positive impact on her work with our son. We saw such great improvement in his confidence, communication, mental well-being, and empathy after just a few sessions with her. Carole also worked with our whole family, training us in how to use her therapy techniques to connect with our children and have the children explore their emotions and mindset through creative play.

If Play Therapy is something you are considering for your child, l would most definitely highly recommend Carole Warren and her work. The results are clearly obvious with how our child is progressing with her everyday struggles and challenges. Carole has been an absolute treasure and joy in our lives, easy to communicate with, listens thoroughly to our concerns, is quick to respond to our questions, and our daughter's best interests do matter to her.

Rebecca

Carole has such a gift to connect with children. Over a 12 week period I noticed huge differences in my daughter. She went from struggling to play with one person to be able to socialise in a group and participate in sports activities. It has been such a huge boost to her confidence and well-being - and she is finally
making friends.

My son really looks forward to his ‘plays’ with Carole, and since the beginning then he is really participating in more and more imaginary play all the time, his friendships at kinder are growing, and importantly Carole has been able to help him identify when he is becoming dysregulated and what tactics he can put into place to bring himself back to a place of calm.
